Popis: Consequences of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in children and adolescents pose a major medical and social problem, as TBI interferes with neuro ontogenesis. Among these consequences, paroxysmal disorders that manifest in the long-term after TBI represent an important issue. These disorders include posttraumatic headaches, posttraumatic epilepsy and subclinical epileptiform EEG activity. In this review, clinical manifestations, pathophysiology and management of the long-term post-TBI paroxysmal disorders in children and adolescents are discussed.
